Meet the team

Jeff Crisp

Formerly in I.T. and was Systems Development Manager for Securicor with 40 analysts and programmers.
In his 20’s, Jeff spent six months in the States; two months in a summer camp in New York State, then four months travelling to the West Coast and back in a van with an American and Dutch friend, visiting New York, Niagara Falls, Black Hills of South Dakota, Yellowstone Park, Yosemite National Park, San Francisco, Hollywood, Grand Canyon, Las Vegas, New Orleans and Washington DC.

A couple of years later spent six months in Italy; three months each at the Universities of Siena and Perugia learning Italian language and culture and mastering the art of eating pasta and pizza and drinking wine.

A keen cook and wine lover, he owned a restaurant in his local town for five years until, completely exhausted, he sold it in 2006.

Always been interested in photography and after the sale of the restaurant, spent a lot of time attending courses with some of the best photographers in the UK and now does portrait and wedding photography on a semi-professional basis (www.our-wedding-photography.co.uk FYI!).

He has dabbled in property development and has a share in a couple of houses near Bodrum in Turkey, where he spends time each year doing the painting and decorating.

He also runs a bed & breakfast in his home town of Winslow, which is close to Silverstone, Stowe Gardens, Waddesdon Manor and Bletchley Park (the home of the code breakers).

And finally, he is a fully qualified masseur, having completed the ITEC one year course in Anatomy, Physiology and Massage.

He is devoted to his daughter who lives in London with her Australian DJ boyfriend.

Chris Delves

Chris has been working with Jeff for 11 years since leaving college, where he studied art and design. He came as a trainee and is now the Production Manager, responsible for all the screen printing and sandblasting and for making sure that everything goes out on time. He is a keen footballer and plays for a local team every weekend and invariably arrives back in work on Monday bruised and battered.

He is married to Teleri who has been honing his DIY skills. Despite the fact that she is a nurse, she apparently has little sympathy for his footballing injuries!

Diana Riley

The Queen of Admin, Diana is responsible for order processing and cash chasing: the critical part of any business. She also is in charge of all badge engraving
She lived in Dubai as a teenager and ran the London Marathon a few years back in a very respectable five hours. She passed her motorbike licence two years ago and hopes to tour Canada by bike with her husband once her two rugby playing sons have flown the nest. One is at uni training to be a doctor and the other builds MotoGP motorbikes. Her other loves are dogs and chocolates (milk or plain!).

Kathy Lewis

Kathy is our marketing specialist, with an extensive background in sales analysis and support. She is responsible for the development of the Crisp Recognition brand and our new websites.

She has led a peripatetic life; she was born in Perth Australia at a very early age, before moving to Bahrain when she was three. Her father’s occupation as an Air Traffic Controller then brought them back to the UK where they lived in various places, including a stint in the Shetland Isles.

Fortunately she has now settled down and has two boys aged four and six.

She is very much an outdoor girl; enjoys camping, walking, running and cycling and has recently re-joined the local gym. Before her sons were born she would think nothing of going ‘wild camping’ – a tent and the bare essentials and off into the wilderness. Bear Grylls watch out!
